"Oh HAHA. If you had not put the pumpkin on my head to begin with... then I wouldn't have this goop in my hair. And you can compliment me after we're done... and you can remove these antlers," she said with a slight pout. Oh he had JOKES?! Fighting the smirk that was trying to form on her lips she shook her head.
"Funny stuff, Jim. I could practice on YOU though. Give you a matching pair. We could make it a trend. People envy us after all," she said dryly as the smirk finally came to the surface. It was all in good fun...
"Okay, seriously. Wanna teach me some stuff? Be my tutor. I need help with nonverbals," she said as her eyes took him in. Hhmmm... with a quick flourish of her wand she cast, "Diffindo." Wand trained on his shirt... so what. She thought he needed a ripped up shirt. There was no ulterior motive there.
UNnecessary birds! Jim conjured a worm and the birds got distracted and started fighting over it. He ignored them and grinned at Lexi.
"Thats true." He agreed. "Effective ain't it?" Grin.
"They envy
us do they?" Hah. If she said so. James cared not. He eyed the birds which were trying to peck themselves into non-existance over the worm. No early birds there.
"Tutor?" Snort. "I don't really do that sort of thing. I'll show you but if you can't figure it out, you're on your own. Besides, what makes you think I'm good enough with non-verbals to go teachin' someone else?"
Whh.... huhhha?
Rippppp.
Jim looked down at his shirt.

Seemed like the Great Interrupter struck again.
But true to form Jimmy rebounded back, in more ways than one. Salander was chuckling at his jokes until he said she could use the Slytherin lad as target practice.
"Heyyyyy focus you two. Leave the spectators out of this." he said pretending to pout.
Speaking of which, whats a spectators' event with a side of profit?
He contemplated more pumpkin/antler combinations. Just for funsies of course.
"Nothin' wrong with my focus." Or a bit. There was a bit. He looked down and busied himself trying to fix his torn shirt.

Hmmm?
Oh. Just the headmaster.
Jimmy eyed the book.
"Probably on my account." Truth.
He especially loved the part where Tate didn't seem to be bothered by the antlers on Lexi's head, or the smushed up pumpkin everywhere.
Or for that matter, the birds in a deathmatch over there in the corner.
Apparently the duel was over.
